Gobseck Summary

It was one o’clock in the morning, during the winter of 1829-30, but in the Vicomtesse de Grandlieu’s salon two persons stayed on who did not belong to her family circle. A young and good-looking man heard the clock strike, and took his leave. When the courtyard echoed with the sound of a departing carriage, the Vicomtesse looked up, saw that no one was present save her brother and a friend of the family finishing their game of piquet, and went across to her daughter. The girl, standing by the chimney-piece, apparently examining a transparent fire-screen, was listening to the sounds from the courtyard in a way that justified certain maternal fears.

The interesting story of Gobseck, a money-lender, his life and business. Hardships and penury faced in early life have made him a miser. He does not believe in helping others and is of the view that money is the only thing that matters. Balzac delves into his heart and mind to present a life-like character and a compelling tale. Thought-provoking!
